“Tumaini” is a Kiswahili word for hope. Tumaini International Ministries Inc. (TIM) is a non-profit

Christian organization formed and financially supported by people, churches, and organizations who

want to reduce the suffering caused by the AIDS epidemic in Kenya.

Tumaini seeks to meet the spiritual and physical needs of AIDS orphans through a sponsorship program

involving over 1500 children. Most of the children live with their grandparents, some with other

relatives and a few with neighbors.

Tumaini believes that children should be loved, nurtured, educated, and protected in a home

environment. Only $38 a month provides a child with food, clothing, education, and health care.

Founded and directed by Dr. and Mrs. Stanley Mutunga. Tumaini International is invested in reducing

extreme poverty through a variety of socio-economic programs designed to provide job training and

sustainable development to unemployed youth and women. Their mission is to provide new economic

alternatives for people facing extreme poverty through formal groups that are organized as Community

Based Organization (CBO) models. Examples include greenhouse farming, tailoring, grain milling, poultry

raising, and more.

Founded and directed by Dr. and Mrs. Stanley Mutunga, Tumaini desires to help the thousands of

starving and orphaned Kenyans, one family at a time. Some of the youth who have been helped by

Tumaini have now formed an alumni alliance to help others.
